According
to HIFF Chairman Kenneth Del Vecchio, the festival received over 1000
submissions this year and "the selection process was rigorous and
difficult given the numerous talented filmmakers who submitted their
works. After final review, HIFF has selected under 5% of the projects
submitted."

This Hoboken fest, which has been named one of the world's "top 10 festivals" by major media will take place May 29 - June 4,
2009. The films will primarily screen at Cedar Lane Cinemas in Teaneck, NJ and Pier A Park in Hoboken, NJ.

Wit's End is an original sitcom pilot produced by Whirlaway Productions in association with Like-Mindend Entertainment. The pilot was written by Lizbeth Finn-Arnold, Sandra Longo, and Mitchell Olson.

The Festival takes place March 6 – 8, 2009 in Honolulu, Hawaii
and the Excellence Award will be handed out at the Closing Night
Awards Ceremony on March 8, 2009 at the Hawaii Theatre in the heart of
Honolulu.

According
to the congratulatory letter from the film festival manager, Wit's End
received the award because it "demonstrated superior and standout
filmmaking and is
deserving of one of our our most esteemed awards. Your film was among
the very best of the several hundreds of films submitted from over 30
countries around the world."
